"General Manager Li!"
"General Manager Li, good morning!"
…
The next morning, Li Dong brought his parents into the supermarket. Along the way, people kept greeting them.
Li Chengyuan's mouth was wide open, especially when he heard others call his son Boss Li. He felt very comfortable.
In the past, he was the one who called others General Manager Li. Since when was it their turn to call him that …
Well, he called his son General Manager Li. However, Li Chengyuan still felt honored.
Cao Fang felt the same, but she was a little nervous.
She was afraid that they would dress poorly and embarrass her son. She was also afraid that her son would be fooled by others because of his young age …
When she thought that such a big supermarket belonged to her son, Cao Fang was excited and nervous.
Li Dong saw his parents' tense faces and knew that they were nervous. He comforted them, "Mom, Dad, I'm the big boss of this supermarket. You are the big bosses. Why are you afraid of them?"
"Cough, cough!"
Cao Fang almost choked on her saliva. She rolled her eyes at her son. "What big boss? You only know how to talk nonsense!"
However, because of Li Dong's interruption, the two of them did feel a lot more relaxed.
They thought about their son's words. Although they were rascally, it was also the truth.
The supermarket was opened by their son. Everyone had to listen to their son, and their son had to listen to them. There was nothing to be nervous about.
Once they relaxed, the two of them were in the mood to look at the supermarket carefully.
Although it was Monday and not the peak shopping period, there were still a lot of people in the supermarket.
It was Li Chengyuan's first time here. He only felt that there were more people in the supermarket than in the wet market.
No wonder his son said that he had to earn at least seventy to eighty thousand a day. With so many people, he could earn a lot just by casually buying things.
Cao Fang thought more. She had been here on the opening day of the supermarket. It was a real sea of people.
She thought about how she, who was usually reluctant to spend money, had spent nearly a thousand that day. One could imagine how much money she had earned on the opening day.
She thought about the mobile phone that she won the lottery that day. This time, Cao Fang did not feel that she was lucky. It must be her son's doing!
…
Li Dong accompanied the old couple to walk around the supermarket from the third floor to the first floor. Then he said, "Dad, Mom, how's the supermarket's business?"
"Great, so many people!" Li Chengyuan sighed and said, "It would be great if so many people went to buy fish from me."
Li Dong choked for a moment. Dad's imagination was so wild. How did it turn to buying fish?
However, his purpose wasn't to show off his good business. He changed the topic and continued, "Didn't I tell you to close your stall yesterday? How about you two open a supermarket too?"
"Us?"
"Open a supermarket?"
Cao Fang and Li Chengyuan looked at Li Dong in surprise.
Li Chengyuan subconsciously wanted to light a cigarette, but when he saw the "No Smoking" sign in the supermarket, he took back the cigarette and asked, "Dongzi, you want me and your mom to open a supermarket?"
"Yes, but it's not like this supermarket. It's a community convenience store."
After Li Dong finished speaking, he saw his parents were confused, so he explained, "It's similar to the current sales agency in the community, but it's more formal. It's similar to Faraway Supermarket."
Li Dong briefly explained the operation model of the community convenience store. Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang nodded, not fully understanding.
After a while, Cao Fang said uncertainly, "Dongzi, can this make money? Will it take away your business? "
Li Dong laughed. Now, there was only his supermarket in Dongping. It was impossible to take over the entire market.
Moreover, the community convenience store was small. It wouldn't have any impact on Faraway Supermarket.
This was a decision he made after thinking for a long time. In the past, he just wanted his parents to close their stall and not be busy anymore, so they could enjoy a comfortable life.
However, his parents had been busy all their lives. Now, they were only in their early forties. It was really hard for them to retire.
People were used to being busy. Once they were idle, it was easier to get sick.
Didn't Li Dong do so much to prevent the tragedy from happening again in his previous life? How could he let such a thing happen again?
Therefore, he thought of a convenience store. It was actually very easy to open a convenience store, especially with the support of Faraway Supermarket.
With Li Dong around, he naturally wouldn't let his parents be tired. Faraway was responsible for the purchase and delivery of goods. He hung a franchise sign for his parents, and the couple only needed to be responsible for collecting money. It was easy and comfortable.
As for whether it could make money or not, there was no doubt. Currently, there wasn't a decent convenience store in Dongping. Without competition, how could it not make money?
After listening to Li Dong's explanation, Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang were silent. After a while, Li Chengyuan said to Cao Fang, "Since Dongzi said it would make money, then let's do it!"
"Is the capital big?" Cao Fang was also a little moved, but she still asked.
"With me around, there's no need to worry about the capital. I'll pay for it …"
"No!" Li Chengyuan suddenly interrupted Li Dong and said, "You keep your own money to spend. Your mother and I can still support ourselves. Now that you are successful, we have no worries. Your mother and I have also saved some money over the years. Together with my private money, it should be about the same, right? "
Just as Li Dong wanted to say something, he heard Cao Fang suddenly pinch Li Chengyuan's waist and shout, "You still have private money?"
"Li Chengyuan, tell me clearly. What do you want to do with your private money?"
"No, I don't want to do anything!"
Li Chengyuan regretted it. Why did he talk so much? He hurriedly used his eyes to send a signal to Li Dong for help.
Li Dong held back his laughter and comforted Cao Fang, "Mom, there are people watching. Save some face for Dad."
"Hmph!"
Cao Fang saw that there were indeed people watching around, and it was in her son's supermarket. She didn't want her son to lose face, so she let go and said, "I won't argue with you now. I'll deal with you when we go back!"
Li Chengyuan had a bitter face. He rubbed his waist and didn't say anything.
Seeing that his father was defeated, Li Dong held back his laughter and returned to the topic. "If it's to rent a storefront, our family's savings are enough. But I think it's best to buy it. The price of houses will definitely rise in the next few years. It's not a loss to buy it. "
Seeing that his father still wanted to speak, Li Dong interrupted, "Dad, I'm your son. Why are you still arguing with me about this? I'm making money to let you live a good life! "
"Hmph! He just wants to save face. What's wrong with our son having money to show filial piety to us? Son, if your father doesn't want it, I want it. He deserves to be poor for a lifetime! "
Cao Fang sneered at Li Chengyuan's hypocrisy. No matter how capable her son was, she was the one who gave birth to him. What was there to be embarrassed about?
Li Dong smiled very happily. His mother's performance was what he wanted to see.
If because of money, even kinship would become estranged, then Li Dong would rather not make money.
Li Chengyuan also understood at this moment. Since his son was willing to show filial piety to them, rejecting it would make his son sad.
Besides, a storefront shouldn't cost much. When they were old, they would have to leave it to their son.
With this thought, he didn't feel so awkward in his heart. Although he didn't have a capable son, having a capable son was also a capable ability!
Seeing that Li Chengyuan nodded, Li Dong was also very happy.
In this way, his parents finally didn't have to watch the stall in the market anymore.
He asked Sun Tao to help out with the convenience store. His parents wouldn't get sick from sitting and collecting money.
Then, Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang weren't in the mood to shop at the supermarket anymore. They pulled Li Dong and asked about the various processes of opening a convenience store.
